I may sound like a shill but I think paying for O'Reilly is worth it. You get access to many books and videos outside the O'Reilly publisher. Definitely worth it, I tend to read a tech book a month (maybe 2 if it's "ligh

Sorry, I meant that you need some programming experience. It will not teach the basics of if loops, making structs, etc; it's a good introduction to rust, prior programming experience required.

While not for beginners, if you'd like to learn rust I recently finished "Command line Rust" [1]. It was my first introduction to rust and the book was quite enjoyable. It starts off with teaching you the very basics of a com

Have you read the packtpub book? I'm very weary on buying from that publisher as I gotten burned too many times. IME they are often both poorly written and horridly incorrect. This was around 2018-ish so maybe they've gotten bette

How is this any different than Google? The only thing Google exceeds at is serving you SEO garbage on every query.

I suppose but how is it fair use if they are literally giving you the answer verbatim from the source? I don't mind paraphrasing, where I get upset is someone copying the material and making money off of it; even more so when this is a

Maybe not an appropriate question, but after searching the comments couldn't find someone asking something similar. If I made my blog GPL licensed would this be a decent way of "protecting" myself? I write programming article

I'm sorry but if one thing America should have learned over the last six years is that the two parties are nothing alike, equating them as the same and making a poor faith effort that voting is useless is extremely moronic.

Interesting reading your comment as well! I honestly don't know what I would expect to learn just writing would I think would happen. :D Thinking about it more, I don't think I've met single person that ever touched a COBOL c

Have you ever tried to start a business? Myself and five of my friends simply can't afford that level of health insurance, even with our resources pooled together. Just because you say the word "business" doesn't make in

I'd actually love to work with COBOL professionally, my problem is that COBOL jobs still pay a substantially low amount of money compared to jobs using modern stacks. For something so "critical" you'd think the base sala

Well if there was an actual union in place there would be general strikes. A company that lost all IT/SWE staff for the period of the strike may be more open to negotiations.

Businesses get way different insurance rates than a single individual (or 12 individuals). It costs me $240 a month for full health coverage ($1000 deductible), dentistry, and eye from my current employer; for me to get something equivalent

Yes! I'm slowly moving towards these steps, it's my excuse for learning go and rust. There are some CLTs that don't exist for my need and I'm working towards creating them. I don't know if you've heard of charm

I have not! I'll have to investigate more, because my little shell script is pretty basic (like 20 lines total, most of which was done for readability). https://github.com/tmuxinator/tmuxinator

I like niche conferences, especially more-so if you're part of the group! I've been using vim for my entire career and neovim since around v0.2. One of vim/neovim conferences (forgot which one) I was introduce to one of my fa

Seems to be just jealousy. From what I gather the old CEO and CTO liked him and his successes/goals but other junior level executives did not. When the new CEO was brought on they started to listen to the junior executives. They poison

No not at all; this org had existed for two years already, was already using agile for said two years, and successfully delivered a multitude of projects using agile. The driver to me seems to clearly increase complexity for the sake of it

I think I will now. I can't find the comment now, but there was a similar conspiracy about ex-Amazon Managers being paid to force their new employers to adopt AWS on one of the programming subreddits.

I worked for a health insurance provider that paid BCG $1mil to confirm that we should be using agile in our org. It took BCG a month to do their "study." We were already using agile in our org, but nice to know some incesteral re
